AIR SUPPLY

  1. The recommended hook-up is shown in
  2. Ensure the air valve is in the “off” position before connecting to the air supply.
  3. You will require an air pressure of more than 6bar (90psi) , and an air volume of more than 4cfm for operating the unit.
    WARNING! Ensure the air supply does not exceed 140PSI while operating the hammer. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing possible damage and/or personal injury.
  4. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the tool.
  5. Clean the air inlet filter screen weekly.
  6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose diameter should be 10mm I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
  7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
  8. COUPLINGS
    1. Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the wrench. To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the wrench. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. See figs 1 & 2.

 

OPERATION

  1. Ensure you have read understood and follow the safety instructions in Section 1.
  2. Attach the retaining spring by holding the front end of the spring and screwing it onto the gun retainer.
  3. Insert the chisel using the spring’s hooked end to hold the chisel in place.
  4. Attached the tool to the air supply as mentioned in Section 2.
  5. To operate the hammer, squeeze the trigger.
    NOTE: The air regulator may be used as a means of throttle control.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING! Disconnect the hammer from the air supply before changing accessories, servicing or performing any maintenance. Keep the hammer oiled for optimum performance
Lubricate daily with a good grade of air oil such as Sealey ATO/500 or ATO/1000. If no air tool oiler is used, a teaspoon of oil can be poured into the tool’s air inlet, or into the hose at the nearest connection to the air supply. Then run the hammer for a short time. When not in use, always turn off air supply.
Note: he following external factors may cause loss of power and effect hammer performance:
The air system
Reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the air line, moisture or restrictions in air pipes or in the use of hose connection having the improper size. Correct the condition accordingly.
The Tool
Grit or gum deposits in the tool. Correct by cleaning the air stainer,if present, and flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No.10 oil and kerosene.
If despite taking action as for above situations the tool function is impaired, contact your local Sealey service dealer for advice.

WARNING! – Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.

This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.

Measured vibration emission value (a): ………20.88 m/s²
Uncertainty value (k):……………………..3.06 m/s²

Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome.

Health surveillance.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be modified accordingly.

Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry and maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct Use and Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC website www.hse.gov.uk – Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
